I still won’t buy a Ford, especially after the announcement that Ford won’t sell the Eco-Netic, a diesel that gets 63-100 mpg and is available only in Europe, in the United States since “Americans won’t buy diesel.” Meanwhile, Mercedes-Benz has started a very effective ad campaign touting their new diesel line.
